Talking about the money, Messi had taken a pay-cut before to remain at the club, I'm confident he can make that sacrifice again for Barcelona been fully aware of the conditions of the club.
When Messi agreed to a pay cut then to remain in Barcelona, he still had some years to play in soccer than he has now. Agreeing to a low pay just because he wants to return back to Spain will be a bad economic decision.

Follow the Money Lionel, there is nothing else for you to proof.

Having said that, Mac Allister is no Jude Bellingham, but he is definitely a decent player who is going to greatly improve this Liverpool team, Jurgen Klopp would also have his eyes on other midfielders, because that is one area i think the club needs proper reinforcements. Liverpool are going to have quite a busy summer in the transfer window in order to be able to compete with City again.
MacAlister can do well in Liverpool. Jude Bellingham was too expensive.

Rumors about Mac Allister and Liverpool had been swirling for months now and it's been great they are working quickly to bring in this player now. but indeed for Jude now it's a bit complicated I think.
Their rival is Madrid and when talking about Dortmund's business of course big money is the priority so if they really want to hijack Jude then they have to be prepared with bigger money than Madrid.
Liverpool have zero chance of signing Jude Bellingham this summer, he is all but certain to be heading to Real Madrid and i expect that deal to become official in a few days/weeks from now, Liverpool pulled out from the race to sign Jude Bellingham many weeks ago, they could not afford to pay the money that is involved.

What source are you citing here? Kane hasn't agreed to anything and officially is still a player of Tottenham Hotspurs. How do you know that he transferred to Real Madrid? If I am informed correctly, Real Madrid made a first offer after Benzema let the club know that he is going to leave this summer, but nothing has been signed yet. Benzema leaving the club makes it more likely though that Real Madrid will now see whether they can find an appropriate substitute and it seems they are offering 100 million pounds, which I think is too much for Kane given how old he is.

In the case of Mbappe I think that Real Madrid now has Vinicius Junior and they are very satisfied with him. They actually play the same position and one of them would have had to switch sides then.
After leaving by Karim Benzema, Real Madrid not linked with any new forward until right now although rumor issues with Harry Kane join with Madrid next season. I don't sure with Real Madrid want to sign Kane because over price offering from Tottenham Hotspur and they will bid above 100 million euro.

Regarding the most expensive transfer values, better for Real Madrid signing Mbappe than Harry Kane have been over 29 years old and Mbappe still young age, but its not easy for signing Mbappe because PSG give excited salary and they won't accepted with how much offering transfer from Real Madrid.

As much as I would like to see Mbappe play for Real Madrid, as much do I not expect that to happen for several reasons. One reason is that I am not sure how pissed off Perez is after he claimed that Mbappe gave his word already I believe and then stepped back and took the offer from PSG, which was all about the money and not about the love to him home country and the city of Paris, as Mbappe claimed. The second reason simply is the money. PSG could counter any offer from Real Madrid any time by just doubling it and then the question is whether Mbappe wants to rise as a soccer player in Madrid or as a soon to be billionaire in Paris.
As Mbappe mentioned, if he has a dream to play in Real Madrid, any money will not be enough. If his ideal is to become a Real Madrid legend, Mbappe will definitely go to Real. However, rumors began to be heard that Real Madrid were interested in Harry Kane. If they sign Harry Kane, I think we can say that Mbappe will stay in Paris this year.

Barcelona are rumored to be signing Inigo Martinez in the near future. This player is a free transfer player. Apart from that, news regarding Messi back to Barcelona become a headline once again. Although I think Messi is also willing to return to Spain, the financial problems facing Barcelona will prevent this from happening. However, Messi will not be willing to aggree with low salary offer, considering Al-Hilal is waiting for him with a bigger salary. Unless Messi is satisfied with the money he own, salary shouldn't be a problem if he can return to Barcelona.
Messi seem willing to rejoin Barcelona this summer and it us only a matter of time before Barcelona begin steps to make Messi a Barcelona player again. Talking about the money, Messi had taken a pay-cut before to remain at the club, I'm confident he can make that sacrifice again for Barcelona been fully aware of the conditions of the club.

if harry kane continues to refuse Madrid's offer then he will only waste his energy on Tottenham, however Madrid is the dream team of many star players and has won many competitions very often, while tottenham is a team that until now has not been able to give kane a trophy. after benzema officially joined al ittihad, madrid had to get a replacement striker before the 23/24 season started.

Harry Kane won't have to force himself to join Real Madrid if he gets good offers from other Premier League sides. Manchester United is one of the teams that has made offers if I'm not mistaken, but Harry Kane still wants to stay at Tottenham. Real Madrid just need to focus on getting other players than Kane, but so far there hasn't been the most impressive news.

As already reported, Real Madrid has just reportedly repatriated Brahim Díaz from Milan. Brahim Díaz who operates in midfield will be really needed because Kroos and Modric will not be as good as last season anymore, of course Diaz will be expected to have a contribution there next season.

Real Madrid has also made move for Harry Kane finally, I've read the player has given the green light to move out of Tottenham Hotspur finally. He needs the switch, any player that leaves Tottenham Hotspur ends up winning a trophy.
I might be wrong but this in one deal I don't see coming to fruition. No doubt Real Madrid would sought after the services of a prolific striker to replace the departed Karim Benzema but age is not on Kane's side and majority of english players don't like plying their trades abroad... So he's either sealing his move to another english club, likely Manchester United or going to remain at Tottenham Hotspur.

Jude Bellingham should have been the best option, but he's just too good, the right decision at this period was to choose Real Madrid.
I'm happy for the LFC fans that MacAllister finally seals his move to Liverpool FC but there's no way LFC would have been able to convince Jude Bellingham to sign a contract when Real Madrid is on the radar. LFC lacks champions league football next season and won't pay him what Madrid is offering, also at Real Madrid he's certain of winning major silverwares before his contract runs out.

They’re reports that PSG have fired coach Christophe Galtier after one season at the club. At this point I think the board and their fans know nothing about football. Their problem is they want quick success. Due to the fact that they have the money, they want quick success especially in the champions league and it’s never easy. Now they have signed Asensio and Ugarte without caring whether they fit into new coache's tactics or formations? what a joke of a club. Zero strategy, zero plan and they want to win UCL.
The facts may differ from what you say. Every player recruitment has been well considered from all aspects so that an agreement can be made even though PSG do not yet know who the coach will replace Christophe Galtier. I heard that Julian Nagelsman is one of the candidates as a potential successor to Galtier, so an improvement is expected from him. Julian Nagelsman will also get the right to spend some money on as many players as he sees fit, so I think PSG's two recent signings were made because PSG need them.

Asensio is a good winger, so PSG probably know what they've done rather than us commenting on some sentiments that may not be true. Julian Nagelsman might be fit to be in charge of PSG next season, so I think PSG will be stronger than in the previous few seasons.
Indeed, in this case, even for Madrid, he may not have a match and is slightly less competitive than Rodrygo or even Valverde, but he is still one of the young talents who has done quite well so far.
Now with Asensio he can fill the gap left by Messi this time around and indeed that would be great for PSG. I just applaud PSG's fast movement this time and they really had to do that from before instead of looking for ready-made players (with big names), so actually rejuvenation like this is quite good, especially Asensio still has very good potential.

No doubt, Asensio is a good winger and a good addition the squad. But take a look at the Chelsea, the owner brought in a lot of players and some decisions that weren’t conclusive and didn’t think he would get a manager forst to consult before signing these players. Now he got a manager (Graham Potter), which in the football world, we know that every manager has his pattern and how he wants his team to play. This is the same route that this PSG owners are taking and it will be detrimental to whatever the new coach wants to achieve.
Chelsea is different from PSG, so you can't say the management and player transfer policies of the two clubs are the same. Chelsea bought a lot of players in the same season where they actually benched a lot of the old players and brought in new players. Of course their games are not coherent because many of the old players need to adapt to the Premier League style of play and need to understand other players. But PSG are definitely not the same, even Asensio's addition to the squad will increase their attacking depth after Messi's departure.

Didn't want to jinx it, but seems all but complete now.

I really like MacAllister, I told Trofo about him even before the WC and that I can't understand why he wasn't starting.
As soon as he did, Argentina's game changed dramatically.

He's just the type of creative player our midfield needs and I'm quite thrilled he's coming to LFC.

He's not Bellingham, of course - but he'll be a good improvement to our team.

Great player, he'll be a great addition to that Liverpool midfielder's, especially with the reduced performance of Thiago Alcantara. Brighton Albion dropped him on the bench immediately he was linked to Liverpool and other Premier League sides because he was unhappy.
Dreams here finally for him. Glad to see he completed the medical with Liverpool today.

Jude Bellingham should have been the best option, but he's just too good, the right decision at this period was to choose Real Madrid.

Since arabian club was coming with very big contract and it will be so stupid if benzema will miss it. Trophies are just bonus but money is everything in the football.
If money is everything, every popular players already join Saudi Arabia League, but as we can see only both Ronaldo and Benzema accept it. Benzema already achieve everything, he have won Champions League, La Liga and Ballon d'Or, he can't win World Cup trophy due to internal conflict.
The arabian club was never giving huge offers in the past but the things have changed once nassr was offering a very big contract to the ronaldo. Nassr was even making ronaldo as the richest footballers.

It's starting now. Even benzema is aware of how important money when he will not be playing in the football again. that's why 1 season in madrid is not important anymore since an offer was coming for him from ittihad.

If saudi clubs were offering a huge contract to the non star player and i think this player will accept it instantly. Arabian club was only picking star player from EU league to push the popularity of the competition.

You will be seeing more EU players come to the SPL soon. It's just the matter of time.

People have been interesting to become professional football caused by they could get huge salary + popularity.

Big clubs have huge expectations from the manager. If we review PSG with Galtier then he did well but the expectations of him were huge like for example better finish in UCL but they failed to advance in round of 16. PSG are desperate to win UCL and I believe they will continue to change until they find someone who can win them the title or at least finish in semifinals. They are a club who wanted to make every options available to the manager and manager has to work with those options. Just like you, I also don't find that "pure football spirit" in them, and I always get the vibe of "football as business" only from them. It's what sets teams like Real Madrid (14 times UCL Champions) and PSG (yet to win UCL) apart.

City are also in the same category but City are way more better as they have good squad harmony, have that fighting spirit, good manager to direct them, board and manager work accordingly, other staff members are better as well. With PSG it's all opposite. Only thing that is same is the money but still City are far more better than PSG.

Real Madrid are looking for a replacement after Karim Benzema's departure. Mane and Mbappe are two names that come to mind. Mbappe's contract at PSG continues and she has stated that she does not want to leave the team before the contract expires. We can say that Mane will be the strongest candidate in this case but Mane's advanced age will be negative for Madrid in terms of long-term plans.
Mbappe needs to be convinced and join the Madrid squad this season, otherwise i can say that Madrid will have problems in scoring goals this season. If Mbappe comes to Madrid i think she will set many records. PSG may have a special place for Mbappe but i think she should definitely go to Madrid for her individual success.

Why she? I haven't heard of Mbappé changing his gender identity  Grin Regarding Mbappe, I heard that he did not activate the option to extend the contract with PSG and in the summer of 2024 he will become a free agent, but Real Madrid, having learned from the bitter experience of negotiating with him, will not agree to any conditions with him without a preliminary contract. Pretty sensible and Mbappe should know his place - everyone can already see that his choice of PSG was a mistake.

Real Madrid will be easy for looking a new striker because they have a lot money and many player want to join Real Madrid, but Tottenham is different because many player want to avoid to join due to curse of no trophy lol. Regardless how good Tottenham is playing and enter champions league for multiple times, they weren't able to win any trophy like Carabao or FA cup.

Tottenham will become a mediocre club after Harry Kane leaving.
Of course, especially next season when Tottenham do not play in the UCL, it will definitely be very difficult for them to recruit star players.
Harry Kane is the most influential player in the Tottenham team, if he leaves the team then it is likely that there will be a significant decrease in the team's performance.
On the other hand, Real Madrid really needs a front striker this season, Harry Kane is indeed very suitable to fill the void in Real Madrid's front line to replace Benzema.
Zero titles and failure to finish in the European zone have made Tottenham only appear in the EPL next season. This situation is very unfavorable for Harry Kane who wants to win a prestigious title with the club he defends. Tottenham are still unable to compete in the race for the EPL title because there are still several stronger clubs like Manchester City who have always dominated in recent years. This condition made Harry Kane begin to consider his future, Harry Kane had not much time left to win the title due to his increasing age.

Benzema departure was a blessing for Harry Kane, Real Madrid began to put him on the list of players who would be brought to the Santiago Bernabeu. Harry Kane should go to a club that is guaranteed to win the title at the end of the season, Real Madrid being the perfect port for him to make his dream of winning a trophy come true.

This season seems to be a strong reason for several players to leave the club and now Di Maria is reported to have officially left Juventus in the summer. It looks like Juventus will not extend his contract which will expire on June 30 and this decision makes Di Maria's status a free agent. Actually Di Maria is still good enough for several teams in Europe, but I don't hear rumors regarding offers from any European teams at this time.

At this old age it seems very difficult to find a place in Europe and maybe going to the Saudi league is one of the best options now, moreover, it has started to be seen that several European players who are approaching retirement are finally placing themselves in a team from the Saudi league.

selling Mateo Kovacic this summer will benefit Chelsea rather than letting him go on a free transfer next season. if indeed he is no longer needed in Chelsea's plans for next season.
moreover, there are rumors that City is interested in Mateo Kovacic. he hasn't done well this season with Chelsea. the Chelsea midfielder only made 2 goals and 2 assists this season. this is because the performance of the team Chelsea is not growing. whereas if he is with City, I think his performance potential can increase.
I think this is a good decision, by selling him at least Chelsea will help a little with his financial problems in the midst of the improvements being made by Pocechtino. Chelsea is no longer the right team for him. And now the Croatian midfielder has lost his place in the Blues squad because of the increasing number of new players brought in by Todd. His contract will be finished in mid-2024. The Citizens are currently looking for a new midfielder to replace Gundogan, whose contract will end soon. I think it's a good choice for Kovacic, joining Manchester City is an advantage. Because on the other hand, we can see that Manchester City is currently in its best performance and indirectly this will help it win several new awards. I believe Kovacic will have a good chance to improve his form if he agrees to join Manchester City.
